Join us at the Educational Development Centre on Oct. 4 from 10 a.m. – noon for a workshop that will explore both the \u201cwhy\u201d and \u201chow\u201d of formative assessment, a strategy that requires you to break down assignments into smaller chunks and provide feedback to your students earlier in the term. You\u2019ll also have a chance to reflect on ways you might be able to modify or enhance your own current assessment practices in light of our discussions.<\/p>\n\n
